But if we are talking about clones, a good date scent would be like Afnan Turathi Brown (YSL Tuxedo clone) or Afnan 9pm (Ultra Male clone, never had a better perfume in my life which has a longevity like Afnan 9pm).

I don't need to hype up liquid brun because everyone else has already done it for me, but Turathi Brown is an amazing alternative to YSL tuxedo and has this beautiful sweet airy patchouli smell that gets so many compliments.
